I understand all investment vehicles have risk and one can lose your principal. Making it harder for ever day Americans to be able to invest in leveraged and inverse funds only empowers the rich and well connected. I should have the right to be able to invest in public products. I am a sophisticated investor that understands risks and should not have to go through special processes to be able to invest in leveraged funds. These funds are tools as an investor I use to hedge my positions as well as having options depending on market conditions. I would appreciate if FINRA did not pass any regulations that make it harder for me to be an investor.

Dear FINRA,
I understand all investment vehicles have risk and one can lose your principal. Making it harder for ever day Americans to be able to invest in leveraged and inverse funds only empowers the rich and well connected. I should have the right to be able to invest in public products.
